Ok, my clutch is really hard to pull in. I have no problems at all with the clutch its just it hard to pull in and i get blisters when i ride. also i have the reverse thing removed and its just a perch and lever any ideas on getting it easier to pull in cause my buddy's EX, you can pull in his clutch with your pinky its so easy. any suggestions, and BTW my lever isn't bent or anything so thats not it.

the clutch cable is probably damaged or needs lubing!

when in doubt, add more lube.

Don't waste your time spraying lube in it. Replace it, it's only $11. We had the same problem with our 300. Put a new cable on it and it's smooth as heck. Now I will replace it every winter for the next season! This job is easy takes about 10 minutes. Just don't adjust it to tight. Leave almost a quarter of an inch free play on the handle.

yea lol, thats true but how am i going to lube it and with what? i know some companys sell that insta lube and it comes with a certain tip to getting inside the cable but would i be better off buying a new cable?
